Love Your Job ~ Hiring Insights from Stone Brewing’s Sales Leaders

Do what you love, and you’ll never work another day in your life.

Ideally, we start our day with a healthy breakfast before heading to our dream job, earning enough to pay our bills. We might even have a bit left. This is not the case for the majority of working Americans.

43% of American employees have discovered how to stay engaged at work and even love their jobs.

Job satisfaction comes from doing something you’re passionate about.

Passion. Experts and managers identify ‘passion’ as the key to making their careers successful and enjoyable. Some have passion for their role, the organization’s mission, or its culture. It’s simple, invest more than your time, love what you do and reach your professional goals.

Jobs in the craft beer industry are booming!

The blooming culture of beer enthusiasts are making a living out of their passion. While jobs in the beer industry won’t be found on Forbes’ 20 Fastest Growing Jobs in America, their numbers are impressive: small independent brewers are seeing a significant increase in the number of operating breweries (they account for 99% of the operating breweries in the U.S.) and provided 129,000 new jobs between 2015-2016.

Experienced Craft Brewing professionals agree, finding employment in their industry is like finding employment in any industry. Loving the product does not make you an expert – you have to be willing to learn and your way up, usually from the bottom.

Landing your dream job is not as far off as you think.
